Rope Tag

Sent in by Matt G. of Lawrence, KS

Get roping just don't get tagged.

This game is for 4 or more players and should be played outside or in an open area.

To play, you need a 5-foot-long piece of rope.

Pick one person to spin the rope. Everyone else gets in a circle around him. He needs to spin the rope low to the ground.

Everyone else tries to jump over the rope. The rope should spin fast enough so that it doesn't hit the ground, but slow enough so that it's not going too fast for people to jump over.

If a person gets tagged by the rope, he is out.

The last person not tagged by the rope is the winner.
